Some of the coastal birds may have been huddling together behind a sand dune to try to stay warm in the extreme cold.The bodies of more than 100 pelicans and other birds were found on Sand Island this week when the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service followed up on a tip from the public. View full size(Courtesy U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service)A dead pelican with an identification tag is seen on Sand Island off the coast of Alabama. Wildlife officials believe it likely was a victim of the extreme cold temperatures in the Deep South.Biologists believe the birds were killed by the extreme cold. Some appeared to have been dead for as long as two weeks, while others had been dead for a day or two, according to officials. Five birds were sent to the U.S. Geological Survey National Wildlife Health Center in Madison, Wis., for necropsies to pinpoint the cause of death. The carcasses were all located around the southern tip of Sand Island, which is now a peninsula attached to Dauphin Island on the Alabama coast.Photos provided by Fish & Wildlife officials show the birds heaped behind small sand dunes as if they died while huddling together to escape cold north winds. All of the pelicans in the photographs appeared to be juvenile birds. "Local residents tell us it's not uncommon for juvenile birds to die in colder temperatures. But a mortality rate this high is too unusual to be ignored," said Pete Tuttle, a federal biologist. Most of the dead animals were pelicans, though a few least terns died as well, according to officials. The Press-Register has also received reports of fish kills, primarily involving mullet, in Dog River and Halls Mill Creek. Fish kills have occurred around Mobile Bay during extreme cold weather several times in the last 10 years.
MOBILE, Ala. -- A $400 million undersea natural gas storage facility planned for south of Bayou La Batre has come back to life.
Falcon Gas Storage Co. said Thursday that it plans to start construction in March on the MoBay Storage Hub, which will use depleted natural gas wells under the Mississippi Sound to store gas. Falcon announced Tuesday that it was seeking customers through Feb. 2 for 8 billion cubic feet of what could be a 50-billion-cubic-foot project.
MoBay had been in limbo for more than a year, after the financial crisis in fall 2008 made it hard for Houston-based Falcon Gas to borrow money. The founding executives left the company in December 2008, selling their shares to Bahrain-based Arcapita Bank, which now owns almost all of Falcon.
"The financial markets have rebounded, and that has a lot to do with why we're moving forward," said John Holcomb, Falcon's vice president of marketing.
Holcomb said Falcon has a "substantial customer" committed to take space, and that if the current "open season" meets its goals, the facility will be 80 percent leased.
He said that, in turn, should allow the company to borrow the money it needs to build MoBay.
Demand for gas storage has been very high in recent months. The recession left more gas on the market, and many traders chose to store gas in hopes of selling at higher prices later. In November, supplies rose to within 1.4 percent of what the U.S. Energy Information Administration estimates is the total U.S. storage capacity of 3.889 trillion cubic feet.
Against that background of high storage demand is rapid expansion of U.S. storage capacity, especially in an area between Mobile and eastern Texas. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has approved 76 new storage projects or expansions in the United States in the last 10 years, which would add 864 billion cubic feet of storage if they were all completed. Of that total, 40 percent has been approved in the plast three years. In many cases, what FERC has approved is only the first phase of a much larger plan.
For example, Sempra Energy is expanding Bay Gas Storage in McIntosh from 11.4 billion cubic feet to 16.4 bcf, and is building 15 billion cubic feet at the new Mississippi Hub near Mendenhall, Miss.
Holcomb said Falcon believes MoBay gains an advantage because it's close to both pipelines serving Florida, and is well positioned to receive gas from new fields in Oklahoma, Texas and Louisiana.
"We like our location a lot," he said.

Dear Dauphin Island Property Owners,
Special thanks to our Dauphin Island Property owners’ volunteers! Thank you so much for all of your hard work and to bear witness to your passion of the Isle Dauphine Club House. It was an unexpected perk and we never could have asked for more dedicated volunteers.
Volunteers don't necessarily have the time, but they have the heart. The gift of time is priceless and those who can help us again on January 10, 2010 between the hours of 12 till 5pm will be able to enjoy refreshments, not to mention the chance to reminisce of their memories of the Isle Dauphine of day past!
Hope to see you there.

(Press-Register) DAUPHIN ISLAND, Ala. -- A $1.5 million congressional appropriation gave Dauphin Island a positive surge Monday in its efforts to shore up its precarious west end. U.S. Rep. Jo Bonner, R-Mobile: "Dauphin Island's role in shielding coastal areas from the brunt of storms is one that we can no longer afford to take for granted."The money sought by U.S. Rep. Jo Bonner, R-Mobile, will fund a study of stabilizing beach erosion. The study, headed by Scott Douglass, a professor at the University of South Alabama and a noted coastal engineer, will go a long way, both men said Monday, in addressing erosion problems that plague the island. "Dauphin Island's role in shielding coastal areas from the brunt of storms is one that we can no longer afford to take for granted," Bonner said. The island serves as a natural shield for south Mobile County by reducing high water and wave intensity during major storms. If this protection were to be jeopardized, so too would be that for estuaries, marshes, oyster beds and inland homes and development, Dauphin Island Mayor Jeff Collier said. The west end breach has been cited by fishermen as one of the causes of higher salinity in the Mississippi Sound, leading to an increase in predatory snails -- oyster drills -- that have decimated area oyster reefs, Collier said. Bonner said that action to rebuild the natural barrier and stabilize erosion was a good investment for people of the island and coastal areas of the county. "We cannot control the frequency or intensity of future storms, but we can better utilize natural protections, such as our barrier islands, to lessen the severity of local destruction," he said. The study will consider beach nourishment as an answer, Douglass said, pointing out that both Orange Beach and Gulf Shores have succeeded in stabilizing their coastlines through sand replenishment. The congressional funding, Douglass said, will help determine whether such beach nourishment can solve some of the island's problems. Douglass said he envisions one solution incorporating "large amounts of sand -- millions of cubic yards" being taken from deposits now sitting in huge quantities offshore in the Gulf of Mexico, not far south of the island.

A special thanks goes out our Dauphin Island Property owners’ volunteers Deb Coffee, Vicki Helm and Jack Gaines Sr.! Thank you so much for all of your hard work and to bear witness to your passion of the Isle Dauphine Club House. It was an unexpected perk and we never could have asked for more dedicated volunteers. Words cannot express how grateful we are to have you here. It is a pleasure and a privilege to work with you.
The key to our success with the cleanup of the club house rests in people like you. Thanks for your inspiring dedication and tremendous example to the Island. Our work is not finished, it has just started.
Volunteers don't necessarily have the time, but they have the heart. The gift of time is priceless and those who can help us again on December 6, 2009 between the hours of 1 till 5pm will be able to enjoy refreshments, not to mention the chance to reminisce of their memories of the Isle Dauphine of day past!
Hope to see you there….Happy Holidays!!!
THE BEST thing that can be said about the $1.5 million settlement of Dauphin Island residents' lawsuit against the federal government is that it ends nearly a decade of legal wrangling over the impact of dredging in the Mobile Ship Channel.
But that $1.5 million won't go very far toward achieving a solution for the erosion that's destroying the island's west end. Many millions of dollars will be needed to support a project aimed at mitigating the damage caused by storms and the daily pounding of waves on the island's beaches.
The $1.44 million provided by the federal government in the settlement (the state of Alabama will pay another $60,000) may fund a feasibility study for a beach renourishment project as well as limited engineering work. However, the Dauphin Island Property Owners Association obviously hoped for more when it filed a lawsuit in 2000 claiming that dredging by the U.S. Army of Corps of Engineers in the Mobile Ship Channel was causing erosion on the island.
But as Dauphin Island Mayor Jeff Collier said, that battle is over now. Islanders must change their focus and redouble their efforts to persuade Congress to include Dauphin Island in the massive federal restoration of the barrier islands in the Mississippi Sound.
Earlier this year, Congress approved $439 million to restore Mississippi's barrier islands.
Dauphin Island is part of the same barrier island chain, but Congress didn't see fit to include it in the restoration program.
In approving the funding, Congress noted that the program offers many benefits, including building up islands that serve as a buffer against storms. The project's value as a coastal protection measure also should help economic redevelopment in areas hard-hit by Hurricane Katrina.
These goals dovetail with Dauphin Island residents' beach restoration plans. We hope U.S. Rep. Jo Bonner and Alabama's U.S. senators, Jeff Sessions and Richard Shelby, will carry that message to the Capitol next year.
HOLIDAY ISLE EMERGES FROM BANKRUPTCY
November 3, 2009
Holiday Isle LLC, the developer of Holiday Isle Condominium on Dauphin Island, Alabama, filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection October 23, 2008. This action was taken to stay a foreclosure sale scheduled for the following morning that was initiated by RBC Bank and Sovereign Bank, the construction lenders for the condominium project.
Located directly on the Gulf of Mexico, Holiday Isle is a seven story luxury condominium containing 144 living units and numerous amenities, including indoor and outdoor pools, covered parking and an elevated fitness center overlooking the beach. The building was completed in 2007 and is the only modern, mid rise, concrete and steel condominium on the Island.
Many of the Holiday Isle condominium units closed following completion, which repaid a majority of the loan. However, some original buyers of units failed to close on their purchases. Had these buyers closed as scheduled, the loan to RBC and Sovereign would have been completely repaid in 2007. The failures to close brought about the foreclosure, which triggered the Chapter 11 filing.
Today, the Bankruptcy court confirmed a business plan submitted by Holiday Isle, allowing it to emerge from bankruptcy and to continue its business operations. This plan provides for the sale of the remaining units at Holiday Isle over a two and one-half year period of time.
Holiday Isle anticipates business as usual in the marketing of its remaining condominium units. Current economic conditions have slowed sales. However, recent sales have been to seasoned investors and most of those closings have been all cash. These buyers have indicated long term investment goals, including rental income and appreciation in value. ACP Real Estate provides full on site rental management services to many owners who rent their units.
During the first several months of its plan, Holiday Isle anticipates selling two or more units each month, rising to three or more units per month during the balance of the plan. Prices during the early months will be the lowest available and will rise over time.
The Holiday Isle Condominium Owners Association, which is composed of the owners of all of the units, is managed by a board of directors composed of a combination of developer appointed and elected independent members. The Association is in excellent financial shape and was not affected by the Chapter 11 filing.
Hello everyone... below is the monthly newsletter from the DIPOA president. Bill Harper announced his resignation which went into effect that day. By election of the Board, Bruce Jones accepted the responsibility of President. Below is his newsletter to the membership.
Dauphin Island Property Owner’s Association
November 2009 Newsletter
You will notice that the newsletter has a new author—I'm Bruce Jones, now serving as your president. At the November board meeting, then President Bill Harper submitted his resignation. I was elected president and Jay Minus, vice president. I will take this opportunity to say a well deserved “Thank You” to Bill for his energetic leadership. His presence will be missed but we wish him well in his new “retirement” status. Following are items of interest to the membership.
Communication—we are working hard to improve our communication processes. Our website is being updated with current and accurate information and we have begun a process of completely overhauling our site so that it can be updated more readily and contain more sophisticated features and capabilities. Stay tuned. Also, we are continuously working to improve the accuracy and completeness of our e-mail list. If you have changed e-mail addresses, or if for any reason you suspect that we don't have your correct address, please contact us. Also, if you are aware of other members who are not being reached by our mailings, please suggest that they contact us. We are serious about getting our mailing list in order and need everyone’s help.
Tropical Storm Ida While it didn't seem like much of a storm down in “the woods”, we nonetheless experienced serious beach erosion and washover on the west end. There was minimal structural damage, but the sand loss continues to burden the west end owners –particularly those south of Bienville. The board passed a resolution instructing the president to send the Mayor a letter requesting that every effort be made to restore the sand to where it came from, and if any bulk depositing of returned sand is necessary, to favor locations to the east, rather than the west, so as to be advantaged by the natural littirio flow. We also offered to assist the town in obtaining right of entry permission if needed. The letter was presented last Monday evening at the agenda meeting, and a copy will be posted on the DIPOA website.
Litigation Status The settlement proposal for the Corp of Engineers lawsuit is still under review by Judge Futey. Following the initial briefs by counsel for both sides, the judge asked for additional briefs to respond to three specific issues which were apparently important to him. Briefs have been filed in response to those issues and additional information from Mr. Graves, et al, has been allowed to be submitted. So at this point all we can say is that Judge Futey appears to be actively and thoroughly reviewing the case, but there’s no way to predict just when we'll have a ruling. The filed documents are being posted on our website.
Isle Dauphine Clubhouse The board has decided not to continue the exclusive arrangement with MMEP, but will seek to broaden use of the facility by making it available to members for various events throughout the year. All of the arrangements are not yet worked out so stay tuned for more detail. In the meantime, if you do have an event ahead for which you would like to use the facility, contact our office and we will provide as much information as is currently available. Keep in mind, there will be a charge for using the facility, but dues paying members will receive a special discount.
Board Vacancy We have a vacancy on the board and are in need of someone to fill the remainder of the term ending in May 2010. At that time the interim member could run for election to a normal three year term. If you would like to be considered for this position, please contact a board member, and/or send me a brief bio.
Next Meeting As is customary, the board will not have a regularly scheduled meeting in December. Next scheduled meeting will be Jan 21 2010 at 6:00 PM, at the clubhouse.
I would like to join the other board members in wishing all of you a safe and enjoyable holiday season. Please feel free to call on any of us if we can be of assistance. We welcome your comments, suggestions, ideas, and criticisms.
Bruce Jones
DIPOA President
We have received notification that Alabama Power will be shutting down power to Dauphin Island on Monday, November 23, 2009 from the hours of 7:00 AM to 12:00 NOON. If a rain date is required, the maintenance will be performed on Tuesday, November 24.
Hello everyone! The Town of Dauphin Island acted quickly to get Bienville Boulevard cleared for vehicle passage and will be clearing Sehoy and Island Shore in the next couple of days. I was able to make it down to the end by the West End Beach with no problems. The police checkpoint remains located at Raphael Semmes however. Contractors are now allowed to begin repair work but only if they have the proper permitting in place available through Town Hall.
While I was out photographing Bienville Boulevard, I happened to meet up with Jeff Collier, Mayor and Corey Moore, Building Inspector. It appears FEMA will hopefully make a decision next week regarding whether or not to declare the Alabama coastline a disaster area. The threshold for funds becoming available is $5 million in damage. The mayor estimates Dauphin Island to bear approximately $4 million in damage and we are not sure of the damages incurred along Baldwin County's beaches. We do know that the Gulf State Pier in Gulf Shores took on some damage but to what monetary extent is not known at this time. Should FEMA not provide assistance, then the repairs will be the Town's responsibility for the repairs to the damage. Those two scenario's will have separate consequences. If we are afforded funds by FEMA, then the government "calls the shots" on what is done, how the sand is treated and where the sand will be placed. And if the Town (and it's citizens) bear the responsibility, the sand will end up where the Town decides. Both Jeff Collier and Corey Moore indicated they wish to put the sand back on the beach.
Here are some photos I took of Bienville Boulevard on 11-15-09. I'll be posting more updates this coming week.
